What did you end up with?

I have a bunch of zero rules for these yet still keep getting the 
"administrative notice" from sbl/zen.

The fact that those guys don't just send out a "yes, this is on by default in 
spamassassin, here is copy pasta to turn us off" email bugs me.

I've grown to this huge list and still get the warnings.

# remove spamhaus tests, they want us to pay
# need to include the first base rule or DNS still triggers but is ignored
score __RCVD_IN_ZEN 0
score RCVD_IN_SBL 0
score RCVD_IN_XBL 0
score RCVD_IN_PBL 0
score URIBL_SBL 0
score URIBL_CSS 0
score URIBL_SBL_A 0
score URIBL_CSS_A 0
score URIBL_DBL_SPAM 0
score URIBL_DBL_PHISH 0
score URIBL_DBL_MALWARE 0
score URIBL_DBL_BOTNETCC 0
score URIBL_DBL_ABUSE_SPAM 0
score URIBL_DBL_ABUSE_REDIR 0
score URIBL_DBL_ABUSE_PHISH 0
score URIBL_DBL_ABUSE_MALW 0
score URIBL_DBL_ABUSE_BOTCC 0

Until I can get around to updating I'm considering just nuking the actual tests 
from the ruleset.
